I specialise in addressing disordered eating behaviours as well as bariatric support. I help people navigating mental health challenges, particularly those related to food and weight, and am experienced in working with neurodivergent individuals. Additionally, I approach each client’s needs with sensitivity if there are cultural and religious considerations with respect to food. 

I am an empathic, non-judgemental therapist and offer a safe, confidential and therapeutic space in our work together. I believe everyone is unique so I individually tailor the way I work using a range of therapeutic techniques. You deserve to have the right support to move forward in a way that’s right for you. Together, we will build a tool kit of positive coping mechanisms to help support you.

Before qualifying as a counsellor I studied molecular biology and then worked in medical trials. This background helps me provide a more comprehensive holistic form of support, particularly for clients who have disordered or distressed eating,  are undergoing bariatric surgery or who are managing chronic health conditions. 

I use the following types of therapy: 

• Person-centred
• Cognitive
• Behavioural
• Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
• Integrative 

I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to explore what you are looking for from therapy and for you to get a sense of whether I’m the right therapist for you. 

I have sessions available Tuesdays - Fridays with some weekday evenings also available. Sessions are either in person or online.  

Sessions are £60 for a 50 minute session.

*I am a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and abide by their ethical framework.
